Patient's question:
The doctor said it was orchitis. A few days ago, the pain and swelling went down, but now the lump hasn't disappeared yet. I'm very anxious to know how to treat orchitis. How is orchitis resolved?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis is a common inflammation of the male reproductive system that can be caused by various septic factors. Orchitis can be classified into non-specific, viral, fungal, spirochetal, parasitic, traumatic, chemical, and other types. Blood and lymphatic channels are the most common routes of infection. The urethra, seminal vesicles, vas deferens, and epididymis can also retrograde seep into the testicles. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory treatment; bed rest with supportive cold therapy for the scrotum; 1% lidocaine is used for spermatic cord block anesthesia and analgesia; incision and drainage should be performed when an abscess forms. Principles of medication. Use sufficient broad-spectrum antibiotics early, such as azithromycin. Everything has a complete recovery process, so there is no need to worry. Rest, avoid heavy physical labor, maintain a light diet, and avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
